Product Briefs

Headend analyzers and network probes are core components of the V-Factor QoE Platform. Working together, analyzers and probes enable rapid identification of symptoms affecting distribution network health in uncompressed and compressed, encrypted and non encrypted environments. These unique devices perform network and deep content analysis to provide carriers, service providers and MSOs the quality information they need to improve revenues and profits by increasing customer satisfaction while lowering technical support costs.

Designed for live IP networks, Symmetricom analyzers and probes offer a powerful solution for end-to end visibility of large-scale IPTV, digital video or VoIP deployments.

Product Range:

Q-1000
Due to complex encoder functionality, Symmetricom has designed a powerful headend analyzer to monitor the encoder and headend network. In addition to monitoring network metrics and TS-level content metrics, the Q-1000 headend analyzer digs deep into the content performing pixel-by-pixel analysis for both no-reference and full-reference headend monitoring solutions.

Q-400
Ideal for video and VoIP applications and deployable across backbones or large PoPs, Q-400 monitors up to 400 SD or up to 1.2 Gbps of HD H.264 video streams and up to 10,000 VoIP streams in parallel in full passive mode. It supports unicast/multicast in full passive mode, MPEG2TS for any MPEG2 or H.264 video stream, and audio and video scoring. It supports 10/100/1000 UTP, Gig Fiber SX and LX, and 10Gbps Fiber.

Q-200
The highly flexible Q-200 is a medium performance network probe designed to deliver performance visibility of premium services on live IP networks. The Q-200, which is ideal for video applications, enables the distributed monitoring of backbones and offers configurable test capacities of 10/100/1000 unshielded twisted pair (UTP) and SX ports.

Q-101
The new Q-101, which is ideal for core IP Performance Metrics (IPPM) monitoring, offers a test capacity of one 1000 UTP test port.
